Long moments and fast years

Daddy daughter magic ❤️ I love moments like these 🥰 #familyphotographerauckland #familysessions #outdoorfamilyphotographer #littleandlegend

It's been a busy few weeks with 13 mini sessions to edit and some covid thrown in there for good measure! Can't wait to share some of our latest adventures with you. #familyphotographerauckland #outdoorphotographer

I love watching families grow 🥰 Kelly and family have had photos with us every year for the last three years. The first photo is from 2022, the second from 2023 and third was from this weekend. Thanks Kelly for choosing us to capture your family as you grow. It means the world to us.

This little dot was one of the happiest babies I've seen. So much love and joy in this wee family. #familylove #familyiseverything

The most loving big brothers 😍 from a recent newborn session.

Oh hey nature babe :) Isn't he a cutie though. I was so lucky to capture @sabbymac and @mimundosumundo's little man recently. Have some gorgeous family shots to share with you soon :) #outdoornewbornsession #outdoornewbornphotography #newbornphotographyauckland #familyphotographerauckland

Can you just feel the love in this photo? So much happiness going on here :) #capturesomememories #familyphotographerauckland #outdoorsessions #comeexplore #backtonature

We met with the lovely Kelly and family recently and just had a blast exploring some greenery together. I love outdoor shoots so much. Being in nature really boosts my soul and just feels right. #naturefamilyportraits #familysessions #familyphotographyauckland #comeexplorewithme #lovetheoutdoors

Our summer mini session day is back! Come join us outdoors and make some memories. Details on the website www.littleandlegend.co.nz

Family photography is more than just a way to capture the moment. It's a way to capture your family's connections—the way you love each other, the way you play together, and the way you laugh. It's about creating beautiful keepsakes that can be passed down from generation to generation and reliving these moments in time over and over again. We believe that family photography is an important part of preserving your memories and creating new ones. Come make some magic with us. . . .#family #familyphotography #familyphotographer #aucklandfamilyphotographer #littleandlegend #familyiseverything #familyislove #motherhood #parenthood #candidphotography

Oh hi little cuteness!!! The moments spent as a mamma are some of the most precious 💕 Every day with a 6 month is a new adventure, mothering can be hard but motherhood is something special. . . . . #blessed #familyphotography #familyportraits #momlife #motherhood #motherhoodunplugged #momsrock #cherishedmemories #lifewithkids #familyphotographerauckland #motherhoodshoot #momtogs #blessedmama #motherslove

The truely lovely Kate and her handsome wee man JJ. Trees are definitely my happy place and you can't get much better than this big comfy one for some family memories. That's the funning thing about Motherhood, it's full of a thousand little moments like this in a single day, the little touches, catches of moments where no matter what else is happening in your day, these are the ones that stick deep in the muscle memory of your heart and have the power to rejuvenate you, especially when you haven't slept in months. 😁😅 #littleandlegend #babyphotographer #babyphotographerauckland #newbornphotographerauckland #babiesofinstagram #babies #cutebabies #family #familyiseverything #familytime #familyfun #familyphotography #familyphotographer #mothersdayminis #instagood #photography #babies #babiesofinstagram #motherhood #babylove #aucklandbabyphotographer #easterphotoshoot #mothersdayminisessions

This Mother's Day is super special for me this year as it's my very first Mother's Day as a mum to a beautiful wee rainbow baby. Our journey to parenthood wasn't an easy one, it took 6 years and three rounds of IVF to finally meet our science baby and it's made me all the more conscious of how important it is to capture memories with her where I'm also in the picture.

It was such a pleasure to be able to take wee Cameron's newborn pictures just before Christmas. And so lovely to see how much little Isobel and Thomas have grown since I took theirs over the years. . . . #aucklandnewbornphotographer #newbornphotographer #aucklandfamilyphotographer #newbornphotography #newbornphotographyauckland

Boy, some moments just melt your heart don't they?! I was honoured to be asked by Ashika and her family to photograph their new wee man Ari. It was also lovely to see just how much Aidan has grown since I took his newborn pictures a few years ago. Can't get enough of Ari's perfect head of hair! . . . #aucklandnewbornphotographer #aucklandfamilyphotography #newbornphotography #familyphotography #candidphotography

I just adore shooting lifestyle newborn sessions. I feel like families are so much more comfortable connecting in this way and you can really see it in the photos. If you're thinking of booking a lifestyle newborn session instead of a posed one I say go for it! . . . . . #newbornphotographer #newbornphotographyauckland #lifestylephotographer #aucklandfamilyphotographer #sweetmoments #momentsthatmoveyou #families #family

Don't you just love an evening shoot?!! I was honoured to be able to photograph wee baby Jagger and family when he was only a few days old and I got to catch up with them again today at our Parenthood Session. Its hard to believe the girls aren't identical twins. So many smiles and hugs in one session 🙂 melt. . . . . .#parenthood_moments #parenthood #parenthoodsessions #motherhood ##aucklandfamilyphotographer #aucklandfamilyphotography #family #familyportaits

I found this little gem when I was looking back over some older shoots and had to share it. When creating a collection for families you have to choose which pictures to keep and which to cull. You don't always get it right. Sometimes you discard a photo for some small imperfection and lose out on sharing a photo like this one, one that is full of character and authenticity. I mean just look at that little face! #family #familyphotography #love #aucklandfamilyphotography #parenthoodsessions

What does it mean to be vulnerable? For some, the word carries a negative connotation and brings up feelings of fear. But for photographers like me whose goal is to capture the essence of feeling, vulnerability is about opening oneself up in order to connect. Connect with the moment, connect with the people around you and to connect with what you're photographing. Vulnerability is also letting yourself be in front of the camera and bravely having those intimate moments captured on film. Vulnerability isn’t easy, but for memories like this, it’s so worth it.. . . . . #vulernable #vulnerability #family #love #instagood #motherhood #motherhoodsessions #motherhoodphotography

What if my child misbehaves through the whole shoot? Does this sound familiar? This is pretty much the number one concern parents have when booking a family shoot with me and I get it. One of things I love the most about working with children is just how uninhibited they are. They know what they want and aren't afraid to stand their ground to get it. Sometimes this can seem challenging and parents worry that their kids won’t listen or take direction. Some children love direction and respond really well to being guided and other children work best when a photographer gets on their wavelength and works with their energy levels. If that means following them around the beach while they point out all the cool shells they can find instead of sitting on mums lap, then I’m all good with that. There are different strategies for different personalities, and part of being a photographer is reading those differences and responding to what works best. Please don’t let those worries get in the way of getting some really lovely family photographs that showcase just who you are as a family! #parenthoodphotography #motherhoodphotography #familyphotography #oureverydaymoments #celebratingthelittlethings #celebratingtgelittlethings #familylove #familygoals #love #family #photography #instagood #happy
